On Tuesday, Owaisi had slammed those questioning the patriotism of Muslims, while making a reference to the fact that five out of seven army soldiers killed by terrorists at the Sunjuwan army camp attack were Kashmiri Muslims.
While the Congress Party supported Owaisi's stand, the Indian Army rejected claims by saying the Army does "not communalise martyrs."
